Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Seven: Harvest Spirit Grass (two in one chapter)
"Of course it's convenient. Fellow Taoist Qingyang has spoken, and trivial matters will naturally not be a problem."
"It's just that the Wei family has a small business, and I hope I can gain the eyes of fellow Taoists!"
Wei Guangzheng said with a smile.
Now that he had just surrendered, he still had to look at people's faces. Of course, it was hard for him to refuse this kind of request that was just for "taking a look."
For the sake of family development, I gave up some spiritual herbs.
"I hope the other person's appetite isn't too big."
Wei Guangzheng said in his heart.
"Fellow Daoist Guangzheng was joking. I am satisfied to be able to go in and meet Liu. How can I look down on him?"
"Thank you, fellow Taoist!"
Liu Yu said with a smile.
As he spoke, he stood up and solemnly bowed his hands.
"It's just a small matter. Fellow Taoist, you're too polite."
"please!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Guangzheng led a few people to lead the way.
Liu Yu told Yan Kai, Xiao Chong and others to wait where they were, and then followed him.
With the spirit-locking restriction, he is not afraid of the tricks the two of them will play.
The most important elixir garden of the Wei family was built near the top of the mountain, opening up a huge space in the mountain, with only an entrance that looked like a yellow iron gate exposed.
This place is just above the two spiritual energy nodes. Before entering, you can clearly feel that the spiritual energy is much richer. It is obviously carefully selected.
This is very similar to the Huang family in Tianyong Mountain where Liu Yu once ransacked and exterminated his family.
There were two monks in the late stage of Qi Refining holding handles at the entrance. Perhaps they had received the news in advance. Their postures were very standard. After Wei Guangzheng gave a few casual instructions, they opened the yellow iron door one by one.
"Fellow Taoist Qingyang, please."
Wei Tiancong turned around and stretched out his hand to guide him.
Liu Yu nodded slightly and stepped in, scanning the elixir garden casually.
As soon as he entered the elixir garden, a strong spiritual energy hit his face. According to the recognized classification in the world of immortality, it could reach the level of the second-level top grade.
Obviously, a spirit-gathering and spirit-bundling formation is arranged here, which can gather spiritual energy and prevent it from leaking out. It can be maintained at a high standard for a long time, making this place suitable for the growth of some spiritual grasses that have higher requirements for spiritual energy.
.
And to be able to achieve this level, the quality of the formation is definitely not low. With the financial resources of a foundation-building family like the Wei family, it would be difficult to build a second one.
"It seems that this is the most important elixir garden of the Wei family. The Wei family did not fool me."
After habitual analysis, Liu Yu looked around and took in a panoramic view of the scene in this elixir garden.
I saw huge sunstones placed everywhere above the spiritual medicine garden, illuminating the interior brightly. It looked like a three-acre spiritual field.
The spiritual fields were divided into square shapes and neatly tended, and each type of spiritual medicine and grass was divided into different growing areas.
Next to the spiritual field are some tools for loosening soil and watering, and there is very little dust in the aisle. Apparently monks often take care of it.
"Not bad, very good."
"The elixir garden of the Wei family has been well maintained and has become a popular place."
"Given time, we will definitely be able to plant many rare spiritual herbs of high vintage, which will help the Wei family grow."
After a few casual glances, Liu Yu praised.
Of course, this is just a scene. This place is more than a little bit worse than the Bingliu Spiritual Medicine Garden he once stationed in Wangyue City. Even compared with the Huang family's in Tianyong City, it is still a step or two behind.
From this aspect, you can simply judge the heritage of a family
"Fellow Taoist Qingyang's words really offend me. The medicine garden is simple, so please don't dislike it."
Wei Guangzheng is very humble.
He knew that for a large sect like Yuanyang Sect with the existence of Yuanying ancestor, the Wei family's wealth was really nothing, so he was very clear-headed.
After saying a few polite words, Liu Yu walked non-stop and approached the spiritual field.
"Biling grass", "Purple grass" and "Guiyuan flower"
He kept looking around the spiritual fields and easily recognized the names of many spiritual herbs, and naturally the uses of many spiritual herbs and elixirs emerged.
With the help of formations, the Wei family's elixir garden has barely reached the level of second-level high-grade aura. However, after all, the aura is limited and there are not many spiritual herbs and elixirs planted. There are only about twenty kinds.
The most abundant ones are the first-order spiritual grasses, which are all used for refining the first-order and high-grade elixirs and are planted on the outside.
The further you go inward, the more valuable the spiritual herbs are and the older they are, and the larger the area they occupy accordingly. After reaching the second level, the number of spiritual herbs and elixirs suddenly decreases.
Every inch of land contains limited spiritual energy. If you want the spiritual grass to grow normally, you must calculate the range of spiritual energy that the spiritual grass can absorb. After all, others do not have fairy mansions and cannot plant spiritual grass intensively.
If you plant second-level spiritual grass in one acre, you won't be able to plant many plants.
"Unfortunately, these are all existing varieties in the Immortal Mansion."
Liu Yu felt regretful and continued walking inward at a slightly faster pace, hoping to gain something.
"Bittergrass"
All he saw were "useless" spiritual herbs. Just as his heart gradually sank, a surprise suddenly appeared.
A spiritual grass that looks like withered grass, has a grayish-yellow appearance, and is about two inches long, appears in sight. It is an auxiliary medicine needed to refine the golden elixir.
Liu Yu was slightly happy in her heart, but her face remained calm. She stopped and walked to the bitter grass to watch.
According to the description in the classics, he soon determined that this was the bitter grass.
"Fellow Taoist Qingyang is indeed well-informed. Yes, this is the bitter grass."
"This spiritual herb was obtained by an ancestor of the Wei family. It was just a seedling at the time. It has been planted in the herb garden for more than three hundred years without knowing it."
"Unfortunately, we have never found a suitable formula to use it."
Wei Guangzheng followed and explained in person, and at the same time he had an unknown premonition.
"I see."
Liu Yu nodded slightly, then changed the topic and said:
"The batch of elixirs refined by Liu happened to be missing several spiritual herbs, and this bitter grass is one of them."
"I wonder if fellow Taoist Wei can give up his love. Liu is willing to buy the spiritual stone and will never let fellow Taoist suffer a loss."
Now that he has seen it, it is related to the refining of the golden elixir, and he is bound to get this spiritual grass.
However, for the sake of long-term development, he still cares more about food and appearance. Compared with taking things by force, "purchasing" is undoubtedly more acceptable to the monks.
"Fellow Taoist Qingyang is too polite. How can I be a stingy person? It's just a spiritual grass, just take it."
"As long as fellow Taoist priests can take care of the Wei family in the future, I hope that I will be satisfied."
Although he was reluctant to give up, for the sake of the family plan, Wei Guangzheng still pretended to be generous and looked nonchalant on the surface.
How can the second-level rare spiritual grass be simply measured by spiritual stones? Maybe in the future, if there is something urgently needed, it can be used to barter.
Seeing Wei Guangzheng's "generous" look, the two Wei family Qi Refining monks following him looked at each other and secretly complained in their hearts. They knew that the patriarch was usually very carefree.
But right now, the two of them can only keep it in their hearts as they talk.
"Why did Fellow Daoist Guangzheng say this? How can Mr. Liu be such a shameless person?"
"Liu will never take this bitter grass for nothing. The two thousand spiritual stones will be used as purchase funds, and the two spiritual grasses from before will also be purchased together!"
Liu Yu said with a serious face.
As he said that, he immediately took out twenty pieces of middle-grade spiritual stones and pushed them toward the latter with his magic power.
"this........"
He wanted to buy three rare spiritual herbs for two thousand spiritual stones. Wei Guangzheng cursed in his heart with a complicated look on his face and began to refuse.
If possible, he would like to give it directly without taking any money, so that the other party can accept a favor.
"What are you waiting for, fellow Taoist? Do you want Liu to be called a villain?"
Liu Yu looked solemn and frowned.
Coupled with the greater strength compared to the other party and the background of a large number of disciples, he really has an aura of calmness and self-power.
"Okay, just follow what fellow Taoist said."
Wei Guangzheng's smile faltered and his face became a little stiff, but he still had to force a smile.
The two Wei family Qi refining monks did not know the value of the spiritual grass and thought it was the clan leader's stubbornness. Seeing that Liu Yu refused to accept free prostitution and insisted on buying it with spiritual stones, they secretly admired her and developed a good impression.
However, these two Qi Refining monks have little knowledge, so how can they know the value of spiritual grass?
"now it's right."
Seeing that the other party accepted the spirit stone, Liu Yucai's expression softened.
If everything goes well, there may be many families who will seek refuge with them in the future. Of course, they cannot let go of rare resources such as spiritual grass. Does every family owe each other a favor?
If you owe too many favors, it will be difficult to lead the team.
Therefore, Liu Yu insisted on purchasing with spirit stones, acting completely businesslike.
After accepting the spiritual stone, Wei Guangzheng opened the formation, dug out the three designated spiritual herbs by their roots, packed them in jade boxes, and finally handed them to Liu Yu.
Among the three spiritual grasses, only the pain grass is needed to refine the golden elixir. The other two spiritual grasses are not available in the fairy mansion, so they are collected for backup.
In the Wei family, only one spiritual grass was harvested for refining the golden elixir. Liu Yu was not disappointed. After all, it was only a small family and could only be ranked in the middle and lower reaches among the foundation-building families.
I didn't have high expectations in the first place, so I can't say I was disappointed.
"Fortunately, the other party's appetite is not too big and he can accept it."
At the same time, seeing that the other party had no other requests, Wei Guangzheng also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
With the spiritual herbs in hand, the tour was completed smoothly. The group quickly left the spiritual medicine garden and returned to the small pavilion on the top of the mountain where the Wei family entertained Liu Yu and his party.
…
On the other side, in the small pavilion on the top of the mountain.
There were exquisite pastries on the table, but Yan Kai and the other four rarely tasted them, and their attention was not focused on them at all.
They were secretly anxious and looked on the road from time to time, wondering when Liu Yu would return.
The attack on the Bai family in Fenghuang Mountain is imminent. If you delay a little longer, the opponent will be more prepared and the most local snake will be more prepared, and the attack will be more difficult.
If something unexpected happens, it is not impossible for these foundation-building monks to perish.
As soon as Liu Yu appeared, Xiao Chong and Wu Yongchun looked at Yan Kai, expecting him to speak.
After all, they are from the same sect, so they don't have so many scruples when speaking.
Yan Kai naturally understood this truth. He took a deep breath, cupped his hands from a distance and said:
"Senior Brother Liu, the attack on Phoenix Mountain should be done quickly rather than slowly. I wonder when we can set off?"
If Liu Yudong watched the fire, he could roughly understand the thoughts of several people. Just as he was about to speak, a slight vibration suddenly came from the storage bag.
So he quickly took out the sect token, scanned it with his spiritual consciousness, and accepted the information.
"The third elder of the Bai family has been executed. Please ask Senior Brother Qingyang for instructions."
This was exactly the news from Leng Yuexin. Although the movement was a little slow, it finally went smoothly.
Liu Yu immediately made a seal with both hands, and hit several spells on the sect token to input information, instructing him to join Jiang Qiushui and wait for his orders.
After doing this, he straightened his face and said to several people seriously:
"Without further delay, let's set off immediately."
Now that the spiritual grass has been obtained, of course, we must take action immediately.
"yes!"
Seeing that Liu Yu finally did not forget about the business, Yan Kai and others breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, they loudly accepted the order.
"Fellow Taoist Qingyang, the one hundred and thirty Qi Refining disciples of the Wei family are all ready and ready to go at any time."
"Tiancong stays behind at Red Maple Mountain. I and the Third Elder are at your disposal at any time, at your command!"
Upon hearing the words to set off immediately, Wei Guangzheng immediately raised his hands.
"Yes, Not Bad."
"Go down and make arrangements immediately."
"Let all the monks board the Guiyuan Ark."
Liu Yu nodded slightly and gave instructions casually.
Then he touched the storage bag, took out the palm-sized Guiyuan Zhou, and cast more than a dozen spells to inject mana into it, causing it to change into a size of dozens of feet and float in the air three to four hundred feet above the ground.
The five of them drove the magical weapons and boarded the Guiyuan boat one after another, while Wei Guangzheng quickly walked down the mountain to notify the disciples in the Qi refining stage to board the boat.
Soon after, escaping lights began to take off one after another and landed carefully on the deck of Guiyuanzhou.
Apparently after being ordered by their clan leader, these Wei family monks understood the family's situation.
"Fellow Taoist Qingyang, all one hundred and thirty Wei family monks have arrived."
Wei Guangzheng reported.
Standing next to him was an old woman with gray hair and dense wrinkles, who was the second elder of the Wei family.
Judging by his appearance, it is clear that the deadline is not far away, and it is doubtful how much strength he can still exert.
However, the Wei family took the initiative to surrender and sent two foundation-building monks and one hundred and thirty Qi-refining monks, leaving only one foundation-building monk to guard the family, which was considered reasonable.
Liu Yu looked serious, and his slightly cold gaze swept over the faces of Yan Kai, Xiao Chong, Wei Guangzheng and others, as well as many Qi Refining monks, and said lightly:
"Set off!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he hit several spells on the control token. Gui Yuanzhou was shocked and the scenery under his feet quickly retreated.
"Red Maple Mountain is only more than two hundred miles away from Phoenix Mountain. It can be reached in about an hour. All the monks do not need to enter the cabin to rest."
"So everyone is on guard on the deck."
Liu Yu announced coldly.
Yan Kai, Xiao Chong, and Wei Guangzheng naturally had no objections, but the monks in the Qi Refining Stage did not dare to disobey.
Seeing this, he nodded.
There are as many as 130 Qi Refining Stage monks sent by the Wei family. Since they joined later, some dangerous tasks will naturally be prioritized, so there is no need to break them up and reorganize them.
Although they are all considered "one of our own", they still have to treat each other on a first-come, first-served basis.
Risks come with rewards, and a second-level spiritual mountain is not that easy to obtain. Wei Guangzheng must be very aware of this.
Liu Yu walked to the bow of the ship, looked at the rapidly retreating mountains below, and summed up the results of the trip, feeling a little emotional in his heart.
